Dear All at Home !

I suppose you are waiting for a message from me again I am well and hope you too. I am still waiting desperately for the promised watch and you wrote that you had mailed it but has not arrived. It did not come with the last parcel, . We all know there are plenty of guys stealing FP items from their Comrades but let us wait a bit longer, I also need sewing kit and a small cissors . I enclose another parcel stamp for you send me Marmalade, Sugar Beet Syrup, and Apple musli, and fat for frying. Nothing else. I will close now.

Greetings Heinrich.
